Charging Transmitter Batteries
I need some guidance for charging some Energizer rechargables in my Spektrum Transmitter. The batteries say 2300nimh and there are 4 to charge so what Amp and capacity should I set my charger to? Any help would be great.

Rechargeable AAs can't take much heat or they don't last long. I charge mine AAs at 0.5 to 0.7amp as a slow charge.
The most I'll charge mine at is 1amp and only when I have to have them in a hurry.
I used to use a 4 cell holder, the charge rates mentioned above and a sensitivity setting of 3 to 5mv/c. Set the capacity for 2300.
I'm not sure about Spectrum, but Futaba's have a diode inside that limits the charge rate charging in the radio, its like 120ma. I used a 4 cell holder connected directly to my charger.
